| MAJ_STANDBY | After switch-on of MAJIS, the Boot SW automatically starts, and performs the primary boot from the PROM (Init fugitive BSW mode).

- upload (using service 6) of new ASW images (or CUSW, or firmware) into MRAM: FCP-MAJ-070 describes the maintenance process.
- upload a new BROWSE Table FCP-MAJ-060 into MRAM

| MAJ_ICU | To monitor the radiometric performances of MAJIS using VISNIR and IR sources Specifically, there are several goals
A) tracking the evolution of the actual levels (before subtracting for CDS) in the digital dynamics (0-65535 at 100 kHz, 0-4095 at 1 MHz). Such an evolution could lead to adjust an offset which can be selected by TC (4 settings) so as to avoid reaching digital saturation for the read image before analog saturation.
B) tracking the evolution of the dark current and cosmetics (new hot / dead pixels)
C) tracking the evolution of the overall photometric response as a function of the signal (needed for the pipeline)

| 3GM_RADIO_OCCULTATIONS | The radio science experiment 3GM, with its dual-frequency radio links (X and Ka-band) referenced to an ultrastable oscillator (USO), is performed as JUICE spacecraft moves in and out of occultation. Occultations occur throughout the jovian tour, but their phasing is not always synchronized with the timing of dedicated Jupiter observations by the other orbiter experiments. For instance, there are no occultations by Jupiter during the equatorial phase in 2030 and only 2 during the inclined orbital phase in 2031. The mission phase with the greatest number of Jupiter occultations (26) is the transfer to the Ganymede mission phase in 2032. The current planning tour offers a fairly regular sampling of latitudes between 54° S and 17° N and a rather global longitudinal coverage. USO unmuted, HAA in NOMINAL SCIENCE.
